I am very invested in the people of Lansing Island. Zach and Leah's story was filled with love and home, and what those mean in our lives. I do find the overtly sexual overtones of the book detract from the heartwarming lessons about family and love. I think 'No Place Like You' has the single best hook I have ever read for the next book in the series. I look forward to it!

No Place Like You by Emma Douglas is a great read. Ms Douglas has provided readers with a well-written book loaded with phenomenal characters. Zach is trying to record his solo album. Leah works at the recording studio run by Zach's family. Their story is a second chance romance full of drama, humor and sexy bits. This story is fast-paced and kept me up way past my bedtime. I enjoyed reading No Place Like You and look forward to reading more from Emma Douglas soon. No Place Like You is book 3 in the Cloud Bay Series but can be read as a standalone. This is a complete book, not a cliff-hanger.

I voluntarily read an Advance Reader Copy of this book that I received from NetGalley.

I fell in love with this crazy, loving and very real family - the Harper's. They are children of a legendary rock star and this has shaped the way they think, feel and act. This is very much true for Zach Harper. He is an emotional person but is not very good at showing those emotions. While he has tried his hardest to run from his Dad's legacy and not be like his Father, he is finding himself more and more like him. This tends to scare him and sometimes cause him to ignore his actions out of fear. He does not want to be anything like his Father (and when you read the story you understand fully why!). He loved his children but wasn't there for them in the way a child needs.

Leah is a kind, strong, independent young woman who has just recovered from a divorce. Although it was a divorce they both agreed on, it still caused her pain that she hasn't quite worked through. She works in the music industry as a producer and is trying to make a name for herself. She not only wants to use Zach for breaking out in the industry but she also has strong feelings for him - something that she continually tries to deny to him, herself and her best friend Faith. It was very interesting to find out about their secret past that they kept hidden from everyone!

As Zach works on his relationship with his family, his relationship steams up with Leah. You can see the two falling in love but holding so much of themselves back from each other. They both seem too afraid to just let go. You are constantly on the edge of your seat guessing if they will take that leap of faith or continue to hold back.

No Place Like You is a well written story of hope, finding oneself, taking that second chance and trust. Our main characters have to work past their own fears and past history in order to move into the future - one that may just hold a lifetime of happiness and love. It is in their hands to have a happy future but they struggle with putting the past where it belongs - in the past.

I loved every moment of this novel and could not put it down! While it is book three in the Cloud Bay series, you don't have to read the other ones first but I highly recommend you do (look out for another review of a book in this series, A Season of You, coming October 17th). This book is set to release December 5th, 2017.

I have enjoyed this series and have been looking forward to Zach's story. For some reason I had a disconnect with Mina's story but Zach's was spot on.

Zach is the only son of rock legend Grey Harper and while that might seem awesome to most Zach has had a hard time finding his own place outside Backlight's shadow. Having fled the island village of Cloud Bay to make a name for himself Zach leaves behind friends and family is his wake that only want the best for him and be a part of his life while Zach has been selfish and only cared for himself. When the tables are turned and he is the one left standing after the gig is up, Zach heads home to focus on a solo career and recording in the safety of his family's secluded compound.

Leah has always had a thing for Zach and gave in to temptation knowing he was headed out and probably never to return. She didn't care; just wanted to have her heart's desire for one night. Having remarried and found it lacking, Leah is recently divorced and a nervous wreck when Zach heads home.

Hoping to have Zach take a chance on her musical talents, Leah asks to produce Zach's album. Can we say that Zach was anything but a jerk in his response. The tension begins and things really get interesting. I loved the strength of Leah to take charge and ask what she wants. Zach I wanted to smash in the face but when he comes around he is so sweet and such a charmer.

Working together brings these two close and Leah is having a hard time battling desires she realizes have never went away. When she and Zach make an arrangemnent for a temporary relationship while he is on the island Leah does everything possible to hold back and only let it be physical while Zach's eyes are opened to what Leah really means to him.

From Leah battling back her emotions to Zach trying to get her to see him as something more than temporary I quickly fell in love with these two. But when circumstances change and Zach is given an opportunity for the bigger and better or to keep going with what feels right and what's working his choices affect many and cause great pain. Can Leah and Zach make it through such pain or is Zach destined to live a life away from the island and family.

Thanks to NetGalley and St Martins Press for the latest Cloud Bay romance. This book does not disappoint a Cloud Bay fan. Even if you have not read the previous books in the series, you should enjoy this tale of romance. Having read the previous books, it was good to catch up with ‘old friends’. A good read which I would recommend to anyone who enjoys light romantic fiction.

Yesssssss!! I have been looking forward to Zach Harper’s book since I started this series!!! In No Place Like You we get Zach and Leah’s story and let me say it’s chock full of angst, sweetness, steam and a second chance romance that will make you swoon!!! I love what was in store for Leah and Zach, but I also loved catching up with the entire Cloud Bay crew. My favorite part about a small town romance series is always the familiarity of the town and characters and Emma Douglas does a fabulous job with both! I enjoyed this novel the entire way through and I am keeping my fingers crossed Emma Douglas keeps this awesome series going for a long time (seriously, Emma if you’re reading this...PLEASE)!!! If you haven’t started the Cloud Bay series, there is no time like the present! You can read each novel as a standalone, but I highly, highly suggest you start from the beginning!!

I love this series of books! I really enjoyed the two main characters and watching their relationship unfold. Please note each of the books in this series also works as a great story by themselves too. I am looking forward to reading the next book in this series! If you are looking for a series of books to read, then definitely check these ones out.

Back in Cloud Bay and Zach is home.
I love this series, its characters and its setting.
The lively way the author portrays this family dynamic is both entertaining and captivating.
You're instantly drawn into the story and it is as if you've never left Cloud Bay.
Once you reach the end of the tale, you are yearning for more.
I cannot wait to read the next instalment.

Leah works as a sound engineer but really wants to produce music. She has been around it all her life and loves it. Zach is the son of a rocker and half owns the company Leah works for. He comes back after his group breaks up and starts working on his own album. He needs a great producer and when Leah asks for the job, he turns her down. When the producer he picks doesn’t give him what he wants, he turns to Leah.
Leah and Zach had a one night stand on her eighteenth birthday and then he left. She knows he’s not sticking around so she proposes they have sex until he leaves. But when he gets a chance to work with his ideal producer, he takes off and leaves Leah broken hearted. Zach realizes the mistake he has made and goes back home. Will he win back his girl and get his career off the ground?
Good story. Leaves you with a little cliffhanger. Good characters. The sex is not very descriptive. One or two was but the rest wasn’t.
* Voluntarily read and reviewed this for netgalley *

This was a sweet read with some serious swooniness. Leah and Zach have just the right amount of chemistry and her say-it-like-it-is attitude was hilarious. They are both great at their jobs, but awkward with each other -the perfect combo.
